Very Tall People.

The Chinese giant, Chang, is 8 feet 3
inches.
A giant feet high was exhibited at
Rouen in 1855.
Lecat speaks of Scotch giant IL feet 6
inches in height.
Garpolus tells of young giantess who
was 10 feet high.
The Grecian giant, Amanab, now Is
years old, is 7 feet 8 inches tall.
The giant Gillie de Trent, in the Tyrol,
and one of the guards of the Duke of
Brunswick, was more than s feet 4 inches
in height.
The Australian giant, Winkelmeier, who
was recently exhibited in Paris, measuring
8! feet, may be regarded as a specimen of
the highest stature attained by the human
species.
A Swedish Peasant, cited by Button,
was 8 feet sinchesin height, and the stature
of the Finish giant, Cujanis, was the same,
while Frederick William, king of Prussia,
had guard of nearly equal stature.

California; wettest Year.

From the San Francisco Bulletin, Nou. IS.
In the season of 1862 no less than
1927 inches of rain fell in this city. The
downpour increased northward and dimin-
ished south of it. 1t was the wettest sea-
son reported since the American occupa-
ton. The Sacramento Valley was flooded
to great depth. The present season, so
far, bears some resemblance to that of 1861
2. In the last mentioned period long
drought preceded the drenching rains.
There was no rain in July or August.
There was little sprinkle in September to
the extent of the one-hundredth part of an
inch. There was no rain in October
But in November the long spell of dry
weather was broken. The rain was not
heavy at first. 1t took II days to drop
4.10 inches. In December the food gates
were opened and 9.54 inches fell in 16
days. This was followed by the unprece-
denteded fall of 24.36 inches in Is days in
January. There were afterward s.35 in
ches in 10 days of February and 2.20 in
ches in IL days of March. The rains Of
the early part Of the season came from the
south in heavy showers. The great rains
of January were cold and partly from the
northwest. They were continuous and
steady rather than heavy. The resem-
blance to 1852 so far is that there has
been no rain in July and August. There
was a small shower in September, but none
since. What there is in such resemblances
cannot, of course, be determined in the
present state Of our meteorological knowl-
edge. But if ic is in this case to continue
much longer rain viii have to come pretty
soon, for we have passed beyond the mid
die Of November.

THEIR ANGELS.
BY ADEL1SE D. p. WHITNEY.

e-N--@%A@'--
My heart is lonely as heart can be,
And the cry of Rachel goes up from me,
For the tender faces unforgot
ofthe little children that are not;
Although. / know,
They are all in the land where shall go.
1 want them close in the dear old way;
But life goes forward, and will not stay;
And He who made 1t has made 1t right:
Yet miss my darling out of my sight.
Although, 1 know,
They are all in the land where shall go.
Only one has died. There is one small MOUND
violet-heaped. in the sweet grave-ground.
Twenty years they have bloomed and spread
Over the little baby head;
And, OIL know,
She is safe in the land where shall go.
Not dead; only grown and gone away;
The hair of my darling is turning gray,
That was golden enee in the days so dear,
Over for many and many year.
Yet know-I know
She's child in the land where shall 60
My bright brave boy is graye-eyed man.
Facing the world as q worker can;
But think of him now as had him then,
And lay his cheek to my heart again;
And so, 1 know,
l shall have him there where we both shall go
Out from the Father, and into life
Back to His breast from the ended strife,
And the finished labor. hear the word
From the lips of Him who was Child and Lord
And 1 know, that so
II shall be in the land where we all shall go
Given back-with the gain. The secret this
Ofthe blessed Kingdom of Children is:
Ny mothers arms are waiting for me;
shall lay my head on my fathers knee;
For So l know,
I'm a child myself where shall go.
The world is troublous and hard and cold,
And men and women grow gray and old;
But behind the world is an inner place,
Where yet their angels behold Gods face,
And, 10 1--WE know
That only the children can see Him so.

FERTILITY OF OREGON SoIL.-The
Milling World says: Reporters of wheat
yields should not overlook the following
instance of fair to middling yield: Hon.
Miles G. Moore, the wellknown capitalist
of Walla Walla, says that this year eastern
Oregon will have the largest crop of wheat
yet known in the state. He says: 'sThe
largest yield that I ever knew of personally
was II bushels per acre for field of 80
acres. The grower made affidavit before
me as to these figures after the grain had
been threshed and the fields measured by
competent surveyors" These figures will
indicate what may be done in the United
States when American wheat growers
shall have no more new lands to cultivate
and shall be forced to intenser cultivation
Of the soil. It is doubtful whether in Eng
land or elsewhere 32-acre tract of land
could be forced to yield an average of II
bushels to the acre with no more culture
and fertilization than were employed on
the Oregon tract mentioned.
